The artificial intelligence (AI) assistant can do plenty of things: Read poetry, share riddles, and even tell dad jokes.
When compared to other AI platforms like OpenAI’s ChatGPT, though, Siri falls rather short.
OpenAI’s ChatGPT is an advanced chatbot that can generate responses in natural language to prompts.
It can complete many tasks in seconds, including writing essays, poems, and even complex code.
Users can even have a full-blown conversation with ChatGPT in a way that Siri can’t yet emulate.

Next, you need to download the ChatGPT shortcut directly onto your iPhone – you can find it here.
